People who are fans of videogames and tv shows are in for a treat as the popular game, “The Last of Us” is now a TV series that HBO has come out with. The game came out in 2013 and the second part of the game came out in 2020. The game was so popular because of the storyline and the concept. HBO have taken their time to select the perfect cast and production elements to resemble the characters and storyline of the game. Although this isn’t the first time a game is made into a tv show or movie, this show has all the right components to make it a special one.

In previous instances where tv shows are based off a game, there have been some elements that make the tv show seem worse than the game but the attention to detail is clear in the first episode of the new show. The game and tv show try to portray a vision of the world where a deadly virus takes control of people and humanity is slowly fading away. The main characters are Joel and Ellie. They are both reliant on each other for their survival and the show aims to be as authentic as the game.

The characters who play Joel and Ellie are Pedro Pascal and Bella Ramsey. Both actors are well known for their acting skills. Pedro Pascal has appeared in a few high rated tv shows like the Game of Thrones and Narcos. Bella Ramsey has also appeared in Game of Thrones and other shows and movies. Fans of entertainment recognize these names and are interested in how they bring their characters to life in the Last of Us. The new series has only released an episode so far with more weekly episodes to come. Fans are eagerly waiting every Sunday to watch how the story progresses.
